Dudley Has A Busy Day Planned Today ...

first I need to go take a shower and go get dressed. Then it is off to the gas station to fill up my truck. Don't even ask what that will cost, I do not want to think about it. Then I need to go to the bank drive thru and get a little cash so I can go see my barber and get my haircut. Dudleys wife mentioned the other day Dudleys hair is starting to look pretty shaggy. Hey I am just glad to still have a full head of hair. A lot of guys can't say that you know. After that, I will probably go somewhere and get something to eat. Then I will probably go buy a Lotto and a Mega Millions ticket and go by the pharmacy to pick up a prescription. After all of that running around, Dudley will be tired and it will be time to go home and take a nap. Being retired/disabled does have its advantages. Dudley and wife are still waiting on their big tax rebate from George W. The local media has been saying for the past several days that the government would be direct depositing the rebates early. Dudley checked the bank balance this morning and still no rebate. It looks like we will receive it tomorrow on Friday May 2nd which is the day we were originally scheduled to get it. So much for accurate reporting from the mainstream media. What the hell did Dudley expect, for the media to be right for once? Hopefully the rebate will arrive on time so Dudleys wife can go ahead and book her and Dudleys daughter and best friends summer vacation on the beach in Mexico. Dudleys wife has been spending way too much time on the computer looking at various vacation packages and has been cutting into Dudleys computer time way too much. This is in addition to Dudleys daughter's vast amount of time spent on the computer with all of her social networking with friends and downloading music and such. It is a wonder Dudley has time to blog.

Check out fuel for thought on my site...it's out of site! Got our rebate today and purchased a new camera so I'm ready to go take a bunch of pictures! Hope you guys have fun when you get to go to Mexico! :)

Hey Marian, gas prices are out of site allright. Hope you enjoy your new camera. Am looking forward to seeing the pictures on your blog. It will come in handy in the fall when you get that trophy buck.

About Me

I am 58 years of age, married with two children, a son age 28 and a daughter age 25. I was forced to retire in 2001 due to health problems. I was diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy a short time later. I worked for fifteen years in the Insurance Claims business. I then worked for about five years for the State Of Texas Department of Human Services. Being disabled and not working is the hardest thing I have ever had to do in my life. My respiratory system is weak and I have to sleep and breath with the aid of a Bipap machine and an oxygen concentrator. This has all but stopped me from making overnight trips away from home due to the equipment being bulky and not easy to move and set up. I have for the most part had to give up the things I loved to do the most which were hunting and fishing. I also can't drive my 1983 Jeep CJ-5 any longer because it has a standard transmission. It is now in my son's hands. I hope he takes good care of it. Being disabled sucks. I am taking it one day at a time. My children are a blessing though they can be trying at times. We have an american eskimo dog named Foxy we got from a rescue organization and a stray cat my daughter named White Kitty.
